Im interested in knowing if solidworks has the capability of being able to bend box tube? Unlike round tubing when box is bent the metal receives deformation from the mandrels that are needed to not only give strength but allow the necessary expansion in doing so. Is this possible or do i just need to externally factor estimated projections?

You can use the sheet metal features to show a bent Tube, draw the shape and insert bends or start your part with the Sheet Metal feature and add your thickness and length, the only thing in both cases you need to have just a little gap between the sketch ends.
